Telegram from the Officer Administering the Government of

Hong Kong to the Secretary of State for the Colonies

Dated 30th August, 1937. Received at 12.15 pm. 30th August.

No.166 | Your telegram No.144 Suggestion was made on the

20th August to all local shipping offices including the P & 0 Steam Navigation Company that passengers already booked to Shanghai should be advised to await reopening of

communications elsewhere than at Hong Kong in view of

shortage of accommodation here. Norddeutsche Lloyd

apparently misunderstood the telegram from Hor Kong agents

who are now explaining the position to Berlin.
